Career
Early career
Manu debuted for Auckland in the 2008 season, and in doing so became Tamaki College's first Auckland representative.[1] Since his debut, he has become a regular starter for the team.
Super Rugby
A member of the 2011 wider training group, Manu made his Blues debut in 2011, in a home match against the New South Wales Waratahs. He made two appearances for the side in 2011, and was a full member of the squad for the 2012 season. After making only three appearances in the 2012 season, he was delisted by new Blues coach Sir John Kirwan and signed a two year deal with the Melbourne Rebels for the 2013 and 2014 seasons. However, after failing a pre-season medical examination, his contract for the 2013 season was terminated. The Hamilton-based Chiefs subsequently picked up Manu in early 2013 as a replacement prop for the injured Josh Hohneck. In 2013, he signed a contract extension with the Chiefs until 2015.[2]
